When to apply

Cases for promotion can be submitted to the Head of Department/Division/Director of Institute at any time during the academic year.

How to apply

First you need to confirm with the budget holder (PI in case of external funding) that resourcing provision for promotion exists.

Cases for promotion can only be considered if the provision for promotion already exists.

Candidates for promotion from Research Associate Grade 7 to Research Fellow Grade 8 are expected to demonstrate that they have:

established their own independent area of expertise in research, and

a sustained and audible research record and a portfolio of high quality published work

If the budget holder confirms that funding is available and you believe you meet the criteria complete the application form and submit this with the supporting documentation to your Head of Department (Head of Division for School of Management, Director for Institute).
